Lord Davies of Oldham: My right honourable friend the Minister for Sport (Richard Caborn) has made the following Written Ministerial Statement.
	I am pleased to inform the House that on 24 May I formally issued the New Opportunities Fund (NOF) and the Community Fund—now operating jointly under the name of the Big Lottery Fund—with policy directions in connection with the Transformational Grants Programme. We announced our intention to establish such a programme in the National Lottery Funding Decision Document in July 2003.
	The NOF and the Community Fund applied to the Secretary of State in December 2004 to authorise the two funds to participate in a joint scheme to make transformational grants. The New Opportunities Fund (Specification of Initiative) Order 2005, which came into force on 5 April 2005, following a resolution of each House of Parliament, specified transformational grants as a new NOF initiative.
	The policy directions which I have issued to the Big Lottery Fund were subject to public consultation and will allow the fund to carry forward the best of the Millennium Commission's work. This presents an opportunity for the fund to support occasionally exciting major capital projects. These will benefit community regeneration and contribute to growth and transformation across the UK.
	I have placed a copy of the policy directions and my letter to Sir Clive Booth in the Libraries of both Houses.
